- Councillor Vikki Slade, the Leader of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) Council, will answer questions from residents during her first live Question and Answer (Q&A) session of the New Year.
The session will be broadcast on Thursday 18 January, from 12.30pm.
Seems to me that the roads around Poole Park are inadequate to cope with the daily traffic. Been down here since 2015 and cannot remember any radical road improvements other than catering to bicycle users - who must ne invisible as i see VERY FEW!
thanks for this. dont let the haters get to you
Which site is talking about for the travelers of the 9 listed in the Echo???

mr Andrew Coley
Hi Andrew, the portacabins will be removed at the end of the C5-2 works, which is currently scheduled for early April.
Listening to Vikki Slade and lookiong at the comments made at the time. Commenting on speed limits - I live in Parkstone - BH12 - and most road are "rat runs". As there is no policing of the 20mph speed limits on the minor roads, I cannot see how changing any speed limit is a practical proposition. No pint of having a speed limit if a number of drivers ignore it as there is no-one to monitor it! Same comment on electric scooters - nearly been hit on the pavement a number of times by people using these on the pavement - again - never any sign of policen in the area to pick up on these people.
Air Festival - Thursday, Friday, Saturday???? I understand dropping a day, I'd happily drop TWO days, but surely the weekend is where it's at. Why not Friday, Saturday, Sunday? Why Barr those Monday to Friday workers?
Thanks Vikki for your updates, I appreciate them. 😊
So in spite of likely overwhelming opposition to the proposed 20MPH speed limits you are quite clearly determined to impose this policy upon local residents/tax payers, that in reality, has nothing to do with safety and everything to do with your blinkered views around environmental issues. Your arrogance is staggering, more so because there will be a significant financial cost associated with this.....whilst you are claiming that BCP council has major budgetary constraints.
Hi, Roads across our country are still dangerous places and we shouldn't accept the level of harm that is caused by road traffic crashes.
We are looking at ways to improve road safety by introducing 20mph as the default speed limit across the urban areas of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP).
Other councils across the UK have already implemented this in their urban areas, and we would like the BCP area to benefit from the improvement to public health and safety that a 20mph speed limit brings.
Some roads would be exempt based on need and capacity. It is also likely that the roll out would take some time, as we work alongside communities to consult on and implement changes to their areas and find ways of funding the change.
We have a paper coming to cabinet in April around 20mph zones. Should any potential new limits then be proposed, we will conduct a full public consultation before making any final decisions.
